Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW F 800 R 2016
With a EURO4 engine, new riding modes, new instruments and new colours, the F 800 R starts the new season. It is recognisable at first glance only by the end cap on the stately stainless steel exhaust. It is one of those full-grown motorbikes that, despite its considerable sporting potential, was designed for the widest possible user group. Therefore, it is absolutely beginner-friendly (throttled), but can also inspire an experienced audience. Its character remains somewhat pragmatic, but the unmistakable, hollow sound of the inline two compensates for this.
Triumph Bonneville T120 Black 2017
Keeping a motorbike model technically up to date for over 60 years without visually departing much from its origins is an enormous challenge - which Triumph has mastered brilliantly with the Bonneville T120 Black. The larger 1200cc engine, the electronics and many modern details have been wonderfully embedded in the old school look. The performance is impressive, but the focus is still on cosiness and that certain flair that defines a Bonnie. And here Triumph has once again hit the bull's eye amidst the many retro attempts of the competition.
